SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR NOISE REDUCTION IN A BAR CODE SIGNAL
摘要
A system and method for reading a bar code are disclosed which may include transmitting light pulsed at a selected frequency to illuminate the bar code; converting light received at the bar code reader from the bar code into an electrical signal; transmitting the electrical signal through a signal conditioning circuit to filter and amplify the electrical signal, to thereby provide a conditioned electrical signal; sampling the conditioned electrical signal at the selected frequency; removing energy due to light scattering within a housing of the bar code reader from the sampled, conditioned electrical signal; generating one of a logical "1" and a logical "0" output based on a value of the signal generated by the step of removing; and resolving output from the step of generating into data indicative of information on the bar code.
